Review Power System Dynamics and Stability / Wiley:

As the demand for electrical power increases, power systems are being operated closer to their stability limits. This text focuses on explaining and analysing the dynamic performance of such systems which is important for both system operation and planning. Placing emphasis on understanding the underlying physical principles, the book opens with an exploration of basic concepts using simple mathematical models. Building on these firm foundations the authors proceed to more complex model and algorithms.

Review Polymers, Phosphors, and Voltaics for Radioisotope Microbatteries / CRC:

Representing the collective effort of over 30 leading scientists in Russia and the United States, this is the first book written solely on the subject of nuclear batteries. It presents a rich historical discussion and original research on the conversion of nuclear materials into electrical power, which can then be harvested to make long-lasting, more energy efficient batteries. With this technology, power-matched supplies would last decades - even centuries - using safe, direct, long-life, stable, integrated electric power from the highest energy density source available. Polymers, Phosphors, and Voltaics for Radioisotope Microbatteries presents the state-of-the-art in interdisciplinary research in radiochemistry, tritium storage, semiconductor fabrication and characterization, nuclear battery fabrication and testing, integration into MEMS and other electronic devices, and much more. A key feature of this book is its discussion of construction materials for miniaturized radioisotope power supplies, since progress in nuclear battery technology depends on characterization of functionally radiation-stable components. Though substantial progress has been made to solve problems of using integrated radioisotope batteries for micro- and nanoelectronics, each author has provided an authoritative assessment and has indicated where development is needed. Research in this area has the potential to revolutionize the microelectronics industry by enabling MEMS and nanotechnology. Significant technological progress depends today on coordinated interdisciplinary research. Polymers, Phosphors, and Voltaics for Radioisotope Microbatteries contains diverse discussions of the problems of using radioactive material for microelectronic power needs and guides readers to future research in the area of long-life, high energy-density batteries.

Review Circuit Analysis for Power Engineering Handbook / Springer:

This handbook on circuit analysis is one of the few texts to address the needs of power systems engineers. Unlike many previous books on the subject, which have had an emphasis on low current circuit analysis, this book considers the circuits and topics which are more relevant to power and high current systems. Consideration is given to both steady state and transient conditions and many examples of power system circuits are included. The coverage is comprehensive with the first chapters reviewing the basics in a generalised manner before the author concentrates upon more advanced material. The text gives an in-depth analysis of such areas as magnetically coupled circuits, three phase systems, the non-sinusoidal behaviour of electric circuits and transmission lines. This handbook will be an invaluable tool for professional engineers in industrial power companies working in the area of power generation and distribution. It is also relevant to postgraduate students and researchers in heavy electrical engineering.
